Construction on the Farm

We spent the morning with my grandma, and Dominic enjoyed belly laughing with her.

And then this afternoon we returned to the farm.  Things are busy around here as they work on building the new shed.  Today a skid steer in busy working out there, there is a bulldozer and and a sheepsfoot.  Gus has skipped his nap the last few days to watch the action out there.

And, I caught a few sweet sibling hugs while we watched the action.

And then a dump truck came a dumped a load.

Gus says that when he gets bigger he's going to be the one driving the Bulldozer.

We miss you Bill!

Nancy, Gus, Bernadette and Dominic

While Bill is in China

We've been having lots of fun down on the farm, and now that my mom is off to Texas to help my sister I had better get on top of sending a few picture to Bill all the way in China.  Here are a few.  I will make sure to snap a few more tomorrow!

And a few more I snapped on my phone:

Love you Bill!

Labor Day in PA

Okay, here we go!  The epic picture dump from our time in PA over Labor Day.  Enjoy--and if you'd like to take/use any of the pictures here you are more than welcome to!

We had a great time visiting Bill's family in PA this last week.  It was Dominic's first time out there and our 1st time flying with 3 kids.  We all survived and had lots of fun along the way.

First off, Dominic met Mom Mom

On Wednesday we had some fun with Maddox and enjoyed ourselves at the park.

Wednesday night we enjoyed some time in Donna and Chuck's pool...  I may or may not have fallen in love with taking pictures of people in this pool.  It's so beautiful with the farm in the background...

Maddox was happy to see his mommy arrive!

How sweet.

The whole Bandzuch clan.

On Thursday Bernadette had a cute ponytail.

And an even cuter Steeler's outfit!

Friday we went to a splash pad.

And, on Saturday we headed over for the Labor Day Party!

Bernadette helped pass out the beer.

You know what to do.

And, we got to meet Ericka!

The next day we gathered again for more food and family.

Baba and Nancy

Ericka--such a pretty girl!

We had to get a few pictures of Becky and  Billy with their new babies!

And Gus made a new friend!  Lu!

While we were there I think Dominic got a little bit chubbier!  

Marcus and his little girl.

That evening we spent a little more time with MomMom and Aunt Paula.  Dominic was wearing a cute little golfers outfit..and Bernadette was still a princess.  

Finally, today we went back down to the farm for a few pictures.

Look--I made a picture!

Congrats!  You made it to the end of this post!

much love, nancy, billy, gus, bernadette and dominic.
